Lights, Camera, Critic

Posted on Tuesday 3 July 2007

One of these days I’m going to talk about Garlic and Sapphires, a memoir by a former restaurant critic for the New York Times. Until then, check out this AP article about Inquirer critic Craig LaBan, whose photo on the philly.com web site obscures his face behind a number of large rolls. (Anonymity is key for a restaurant critic.) Turns out he had to be deposed on camera for a libel suit a restaurant owner filed against him - which, if you read the article, seems to hinge on whether LaBan ate a strip steak or a ribeye. Talk about your high steaks, I mean stakes.
